- Transmission is a novel set in the media world of the nineties. Angie, a second-generation immigrant from india in her twenties, is an up-and-coming television researcher in Soho. When she meets Lol and his wife Kathi, who are both HIV-positive, she thinks she has discovered the perfect story for a timely documentary. But neither Kathi nor Angie realise how television can completely change your life, how being a subject of the medium can also mean being a victim. Through Angie?s family complexities, the death of her friend and her burgeoning relationship with Lol, this streetwise, witty novel tackles important moral dilemmas of our times and establishes Atima Srivastava as a distinctive new voice in British fiction.
